East Coast Hobbs.........

[Don Ferrette]

Since Charleston FallNats got postponed and he was already out this way Al Hobbs got a chance to run his boats at our quiet little test pond on Thursday. Always great to spend time with good friends running boats.

Al, Don and I spent a good part of the day running some boats at our little pond. My wife Pris had made us some chicken salad and some rolls along with some watermelon chunks and some potato chips for lunch. All of the boats ran pretty good so it was a good day. Gave Al a tour of the countryside in the Z06 when he got here and another down Monument Avenue in Richmond before he left. He is on his way home right now. Here's wishing him a safe trip.

Retired life has been treating him well.

"Test Pond" is not the right word for what Dick and Don share near their homes in Virginia. It is more like a private,

professionally groomed park, with calm lake, all protected from the wind. Great day testing boats with good friends. Complete

with lunch and then a roast beef dinner.

Some people really know how to treat visitors.

Thanks to Dick, Priscilla and Don for a great time.

Al really happy to see you got to see model boat heaven. I wish I was there with you my good friend.

Safe travels home.

I arrived home in one piece this evening. Here it is below freezing, with fresh snow on the roof. But no hurricanes.

Quite a bit different than in Don's photo....

See you all in November.
